LONG BEACH, CA (October 14, 2013) – LONG BEACH, CA (October 15, 2013) – Long Beach Comic & Horror Con is proud to welcome artist and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle creator Kevin Eastman to the anniversary event, on November 23^rd and 24^th.

Eastman, co-creator of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, brings his creator owned projects to Long Beach, including Heavy Metal magazine, as well as his IDW-published TMNT comics. Eastman is also a co-creator of Digger Mesch (Agent 88) and Joshua Ortega’s (Gears of War) smash hit “The Other Dead” from IDW.

“Having Kevin Eastman as a Special Guest at the show is an honor this year. Turtles are such an important part of pop culture and will be hitting again next year in theaters, and we can’t wait to hear about it. Also, with the current hit cartoon on Nick, kids are going to love talking to Kevin about what goes on in the Turtle’s world! Long Beach will also be Kevin’s last appearance of the year, and I am certain that it’s going be a great one!” says Phil Lawrence, Co-Founder and Sales Director of Long Beach Comic & Horror Con.

The Kevin Eastman Signature Package includes entrance tickets for both Saturday and Sunday, limited edition comics and items, signatures on up to 10 items, limited edition Turtles print that includes a rare sketch from Kevin (this is the only time Kevin will be doing sketches at a show) and much more!
